Rethinking the Concept of the Grotesque: Crashaw, Baudelaire, Magritte

Review Quotes: There is much to admire in this stimulating and well-researched study, not least its invitation to reconsider the significance not only of the grotesque itself, but also of other influential and related aesthetic terms such as the sublime, the uncanny, and the fantastic.--Damian Catani "Modern Language Review, 106.4, 2011, 1129-31 "
